All levels of hikers and explorers are welcome. It is a 44-acre reserve, which, if walls could talk, would tell you of the many battles of the French and British for St. Lucia. A living museum with guided exploration and several beaches, dining and many, many areas to relax between exploring St. Lucia's rich past and present. The Pigeon Island was first occupied by the Amerindians, mainly Caribs, for which a region is named. The island was later occupied by pirates. Your walk through this important national landmark is a composite of this rich, varied history of our peoples. Be sure to explore Fort Rodney and be prepared to be amazed by the 360-degree views it affords. And it is among the top places to pop the question in St. Lucia.
